The present disclosure provides methadone prodrugs, pharmaceutical compositions, and their methods of use, where the pharmaceutical compositions comprise a methadone prodrug that provides enzymatically-controlled release of methadone, and an optional enzyme inhibitor that interacts with the enzyme(s) that mediates the enzymatically-controlled release of methadone from the prodrug so as to attenuate enzymatic cleavage of the prodrug.

The present disclosure compounds, as well as their compositions and methods of use. The compounds inhibit the activity of the TEAD transcription factor, and are useful in the treatment of diseases related to the activity of TEAD transcription factor including, e.g., cancer and other diseases.

This invention relates to novel compounds according to Formula (I) which are inhibitors of furin, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them, to processes for their preparation, and to their use in therapy for the treatment of fibrotic diseases, including pulmonary fibrosis, renal fibrosis, liver fibrosis, skin fibrosis, ocular fibrosis, cardiac fibrosis, and other miscellaneous fibrotic conditions. The disclosed compounds may also be useful for treating other furin-mediated conditions, including but not limited to, hypertension, cancer, infectious diseases, and genetic disorders (e.g., cystic fibrosis (CF)), and neurodegenerative disorders.
